...the card is called the FlashAir. Toshiba claims in its press release that the FlashAir is “the world’s first SDHC memory card with embedded wireless LAN functionality that is fully compliant with the SD Memory Card Standard,” something the good folks at Eye-Fi might take issue with.The cards will come in one size initially — 8GB — and do something that the Eye’Fi cards don’t: two-way transfer. Not only can photos be sent to and from a server, they can also make peer-to-peer transfers. Yes, if you and a friend both have FlashAir cards in your cameras, then you will be able to send pictures to each other, no computer required.The launch date isn’t until February 2012, which means the details still need to be written. We do know that the cards will require compatible cameras for P2P sharing, and that the cards will support 802.11n, WEP, TKIP, AES (WPA, WPA2) encryption and RAW, JPG and movie files, and that it will work at Class 6 speeds when used as a regular SD card.
a shower that records you singing and uploads it to youtube?
they would probably just show as an open wifi hotspot.... ....uploading an image with the contents 'wifi security 101' would both scare and hopefully educate these users...... ....what baffles the hell out of me is these cards support WEP.... WEP is defunct and horridly insecure.... -nothing- should support it anymore... also interesting the article mentions that these cards would need a 'compatible camera'... ...if the camera were 'compatible' would it not make more sense to put the wifi in the camera itself rather than the sd card?? would save a hell of a lot more money in the long run.....
